<p>To our surprise we have to conclude that with the current SVG standard 1.1 as well
|
||
as with the upcoming 1.2 (based on SVG-T) it will not be possible to implement a
|
||
full backend in SVG. </p>
|
||
<p>The primary hinder is the lack of adequate text manipulation in the current SVG
|
||
standard. In addition the implementation of the text supporting feature in current
|
||
SVG viewers range from poor and erroneous to non-existing. </p>
|
||
<p>The only way to solve this would be to drastically reduce some functionality of
|
||
the library in regards to text handling and require the user of the library to
|
||
supply text sizes to be used in many places of the library where that is needed.
